1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the relative impact of the Osijek multidisciplinary biopsychosocial program for chronic low back pain (CLBP) compared with standard multimodal care with respect to pain intensity, disability, health-related quality of life, anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep quality using standardized self-assessment questionnaires and a smartwatch. A total of 128 patients treated at the Department of Pain Management, University Hospital Osijek, were randomly allocated to two groups. The multidisciplinary biopsychosocial group participated in a structured four-week program combining education, exercise, and individualized multidisciplinary care, while the multimodal group received conventional conservative treatment including pharmacotherapy and selected physical therapy modalities. The four-week intervention included standardized self-report questionnaires, a sociodemographic data form, and a Fitbit Charge 3 smartwatch for objective monitoring of sleep and physical activity. A significant reduction in pain intensity was observed across numerical scales and most questionnaire measures (Wilcoxon test,
